Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan

Sometimes I am super excited and well-prepared for Rosh Chodesh. Other times, like this month, I completely forget. Only when a teacher asked how many students were in my class and handed me that many lollipops (long after I finished tefilah shacharit) did I realize.

Usually for Rosh Chodesh I make something special with my class. I tried to quickly brainstorm. Cheshvan is rain, for lack of any festivals. Rain---rain cookies---a cake---I almost gave up.
Suddenly I realized the answer was in my hand. I sent one teacher to print a template. Another wrote the Hebrew. The students cut and colored.

Tada!!

 At home my girls made them too.

Chodesh tov!
